About

Launching soon: Pontos Nexus — a sustainability-verified marketplace for upcycled marine products.

At Pontos, we are preparing to launch Nexus — a data-verified marketplace designed to bring sustainably sourced and upcycled marine products directly to premium buyers. Set to go live by the end of this year, Nexus represents a critical step toward building a circular and regenerative blue economy.
By transforming intercepted marine debris into premium goods, Nexus not only diverts ocean-bound waste but also creates new economic opportunities for small-scale and semi-industrial fisheries. It leverages operational data from Prisma, our onboard AI platform, to validate sustainability claims and support transparent, traceable, and reward-driven market access.
We are actively seeking early partners who share our vision to:

  • Co-design and scale product lines from upcycled marine materials

  • Pilot innovative circular business models in coastal communities

  • Enable inclusive market access for fishers via verified sustainability metrics

  • Raise awareness and drive adoption of ocean-positive consumer goods

This is a unique pre-launch opportunity to shape the marketplace from the ground up — ensuring it aligns with real-world impact, traceability, and social equity.
Let’s work together to turn marine waste into opportunity — for people, planet, and purpose.
